Kwara United players have been hospitalised after their team
bus was involved in a crash while on their way to their base Ilorin.

The newly promoted Nigeria Professional Football League
(NPFL) side were on their way to Ilorin after their Bet9ja NNL Super Four
tourney in Lagos.

According to several reports, some players were injured in
the crash and have been taken to an undisclosed hospital. From pictures circulating on social media, the Kwara
United’s team bus has been badly damaged from the crash.

This accident puts their opening game of the 2018/2019 NPFL
season in doubt. The Kwara State-owned side have been scheduled to host Niger
Tornadoes on Sunday, January 14.

Auto crash like this is now news in Nigerian local football.
In recent years, the likes of Ikorodu United FC and Heartland FC had accidents
while on their way for club engagements.

Kano Pillars and Giwa Football Club were attacked by armed
robbers while on their way to league games.
